My nan actually remembers the cafe, I believe her mum worked there at some point!Anyone remember anything about the top end of Schofield St., Nechells, at the junction with Great Lister St., ?
The cafe on the corner, the corn shop on the other corner, the lady that used to sell the toffee apples or old residents of the back to backs. Only six when I left 187.
if you go back to post 31 there is a photo of the coronation celebrations 1937 so maybe your relative is amongst the crowd..This is quite an old 'chat' now, but one of my relatives lived at 24 Scholefield Street. As far as I can see that was between about 1921 until 1939. His name was Thomas Shreeve and his wife Sarah. They had quite a large family. Just thought I'd post this in case this chat becomes 'live' again.
Thank you Lyn, yes I saw that and was wondering whether my relatives may have been amongst the crowd. Best wishesif you go back to post 31 there is a photo of the coronation celebrations 1937 so maybe your relative is amongst the crowd..
